I don't think it has a launch rate high enough to be interesting for
launching warheads. They advertise a possible high launch rate,
something like a few launches per day, that is high for orbital rockets
but way too low for guns.


True. It's a solution looking for a problem to solve. I certainly
wouldn't invest a dime on this.

Now, for the moon, this thing would be perfect. No air on the moon
means no drag, no aerodynamic heating, and most especially no sonic boom
when exiting the launcher. And as a bonus, the 1/6 gravity also makes
for a low escape velocity and theretofore the required exit velocity is
much lower.

But they appear to be marketing this to investors as low cost launch to
earth orbit. That's, at best, very sketchy.
